EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the distinguished figure of Baldo degli Ubaldi, a prominent Italian jurist and nobleman from the 14th century. Painted by Cristofano dell'Altissimo and his workshop around 1560, this oil on canvas artwork measures 76.5 x 63 cm and is currently housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The subject of this painting, Baldus de Ubaldis (1327-1400), was not only an influential legal scholar but also a key figure in Medieval Roman Law. The artist masterfully captures his essence through a head and shoulders composition that highlights his profile. Clad in an elegant hat and cap typical of the era, Baldo exudes an air of authority befitting his status as a dignitary. This portrait belongs to a series commissioned by Renaissance historian Paolo Giovio, known for documenting notable figures of the time. It offers us a glimpse into the intellectual world of Florence during the Renaissance period while honoring one of its most esteemed legal minds. With meticulous brushwork and attention to detail, Cristofano dell'Altissimo immortalizes Baldo degli Ubaldi's legacy as both a scholar and author within this remarkable piece. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of portraiture in capturing historical figures who have left indelible marks on society.
